Hi there! I like my natural nose and am wondering if I could alter my side profile uet keep my nose tip intact?
Answer: What you should know about rhinoplasty Thank you for your question and photo. It is possible to redefine your dorsal hump while keeping your nose’s tip intact. Nasal rasps can be used to file the hump down safely while preserving the rest of your nose structure. You may want to request imaging morphing to determine how your nose’s appearance may change overall once the dorsal hump is reduced. It’s important to mention that rhinoplasty is one of the most complex of all plastic surgery procedures, requiring experience, skill, and even artistry to achieve an optimal outcome. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon, with expertise in rhinoplasty techniques. They will be able to review your aesthetic goals and determine the best treatment plan for you.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello! Thank you for your question. As far as I can see from your photo you have a strong hump on your bridge. Your surgeon can be fix the hump and leave the tip as you wish. If you can provide photos with better lighting, from the front of your face and 1 meter away I would be able to make a proper evaluation. It would be more convenient to decide with face-to-face consultation. Best Regards!

Answer: Dorsal hump and nasal tip: Dorsal hump and nasal tip: Theoretically, it is always possible to remove a dorsal hub and leave the tip untouched. However, while the tip may look good now with your larger bridge, reducing the hump and narrowing the bridge may make your current tip look too large for the smaller upper portion of the nose. So it is rare therefore that the tip can be left alone while the bridge of the nose is reduced.

Answer: In many people, hump removal during rhinoplasty necessitates tip plasty. Everyone has ligaments that extend from the bottom of the nasal bridge to the nasal tip. If you just have surgery to remove a dorsal hump without addressing your nasal tip, these supporting ligaments may be disrupted and lead to a droopier nasal tip appearance. Please consult with several reputable rhinoplasty specialists who offer computer Imaging so you could see what might be best for you moving forward. I hope this is helpful. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Answer: Rhinoplasty for bridge only... Based on the photo, you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. Yes, the bump can be taken down while leaving the tip the same. Be sure to see a rhinoplasty expert for consultation that will do computer imaging at the same time to show you how it can look.
